Meet Christie Smallwood, Physician Assistant at LA CENTA

Q & A with Christie:

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

I enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching horror movies, cooking, and traveling both near and far. I'm equally happy exploring a new destination or enjoying a relaxing staycation.

How would you describe your personality?

I would describe myself as laid-back, empathetic, silly with a fun sense of humor and spirited. I enjoy creating positive connections with others and bringing good energy to both my personal and professional interactions.

What inspired you to pursue a career in medicine?

When I was 16 years old, I sustained a burn injury while cooking and was treated in the emergency department by a compassionate Physician Assistant. The care I received left a lasting impression on me and inspired me to pursue a career as a PA, where I could provide the same level of support and care to others.

What are your favorite procedures or surgeries to perform?

I enjoy learning new procedures and continuously expanding my skill set. In ENT, I particularly enjoy hands-on procedural care and appreciate opportunities to develop technical skills that improve patient outcomes.

What personal and/or professional goals are you currently pursuing?

Professionally, my goal is to continue growing into a skilled and knowledgeable ENT provider while expanding my procedural expertise. Personally, I am focused on improving my overall fitness and health by incorporating more cardiovascular exercise into my routine, including joining a cycling class

Who has been the most influential mentor in your career?

Personally, my parents have been my greatest mentors, teaching me the value of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Professionally, my primary care preceptor during PA school played a significant role in shaping my clinical foundation and helping me develop the confidence needed to begin my career as a Physician Assistant.

Do you speak any languages other than English?

At this time, English is the only language I speak professionally
